Frankfurt Takes On Liverpool in UCL Match
Game Highlights
Arne Slot implemented several adjustments to the starting XI following the 2-1 defeat to United on Sunday. Mohamed Salah starting on the bench is one of the significant developments, while Florian Wirtz is back to the lineup. Hugo Ekitike, Jones, and Frimpong—all of whom brought impact as replacements in the previous match—are also named in the starting eleven, together with Robertson. Kerkez, Conor Bradley, and Alexis Mac Allister are on the bench, while Ryan Gravenberch is unavailable because of an ankle issue.

Liverpool are set up to face Eintracht Frankfurt 🔴 #ChampionsLeague
Preamble
Following losing four matches back-to-back, Liverpool aren't quite heading towards unfamiliar ground. However, the previous occasion the club suffered five consecutive losses in a row was back in the 1950s, under manager Don Welsh. This campaign ended in the drop from the old First Division.
Now, no one is seriously suggesting that the team face relegation now. Yet the manager will be eager to prevent repeating that bit of history. The team need to get their Premier League and Champions League campaigns on course quickly.
Frankfurt's first two fixtures in this season's competition finished with a 5-1 scoreline—a victory at home over Galatasaray and an away defeat at Atletico Madrid. The Reds, on the other hand, have defeated the team Frankfurt were beaten by, and been defeated by the one Eintracht beat. Therefore, predicting this game proves particularly difficult.
This unpredictable fun begins at 8pm UK time. It's on!
